The hunt for better materials has resulted in the development of IPN-type polymer alloys where two dissimilar polymers are combined into a stable interpenetrating network and provide enhanced properties over the member polymers.

You would not be wrong if you were to discern in this model two sources: The first is the sociological formulations of Ernst Troeltsch, (9) which are here reinterpreted precisely not as competitive alternatives but on the basis of history, as parallel and interpenetrating, mutually enriching norms.

Cosmetic grade polydimethylsiloxane and polymethylsilsesquioxane (PMSQ) are entwined in a process that produces a finely divided porous particle using interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) synthesis, which is not a simple mixture of two polymer materials.

of Denmark) offers a range of methods for analysis of the interrelationships between mechanical properties and microstructures of composite materials as he describes the mesoscale level in the mechanics of materials, modeling damage and failure, analyzing microstructure-strength relationships in composites, using concepts and tools of computational experiments in the mechanics of materials, conducting numerical mesomechanical experiments on deformation and damage, analyzing particle-reinforced composites and particle clustering, interpenetrating phase composites, conducting numerical analyses of damage in fiber reinforced composites, and analyzing micro-macro relationships.
